A spooky contest – Win Usborne’s Halloween Activities!

It’s finally October. This means A Readable Feast will be featuring a month full of pumpkin, squash, and Halloween party recipes. It also means a month of reviewing scary tales and Halloween books.

It also means a contest. I’m giving away four copies of Usborne Book’s Halloween Activities this month!

For ages four and up, this 32 page paperback (plus 2 pages of stickers) features terrific projects to do with your kids this Halloween season like making:

• Spooky pumpkin lanterns
• A ghoulish vampire bat costume
• Scary spiders

There are also instructions for making Halloween party invitations, decorations, recipes, and two pages of stickers for decorating projects and pictures.

   Sounds like a fun book to explore with my grand-daughters. They do like projects they can share with their Ompa.

    I would love to win this book — I am usually the Mom in charge of classroom parties for my daughter, and this year I have a 5th grader and a kindergartener. This would be a great way to have new things to do!
